The entire Wikipedia section [1] dedicated to the history of the Linux kernel's versioning scheme is quite interesting. A funny detail is that the 0.x version series progressed as 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.95, 0.96, 0.97, 0

I feel similarly. I’m a heavy vim user myself, and while Xi intrigues me, I think the knowledge that I would lose my very personal vim configuration which is years in the making dissuades me. This is probably an indication that I’ve gone a

Someone should register both spaces.dev and tabs.dev, then set them each up to redirect to the other, but only if the HTTP referer is not from the opposing site, to prevent infinite redirects. Then, the only way to access spaces.dev is to n

If you read the full article, you’d see they specifically mention that they were studying ‘huh’ in the context of “other-initiated repair” (see the article for a definition), and they noted that ‘huh’-like words often have additional contex

I used nvm for years, but my development workflow became more and more terminal-oriented to the point I was spawning new ones several times an hour. Nvm took almost a second to launch, easily consuming 99% of the startup time for each shell

Something which isn't mentioned here and is difficult to find precise information even in the official docs is how versioning works - specifically, how do you specify what version your module is? Semver is mentioned, but not how to de

This may be referring to running under Linux with a high DPI monitor - a lot of programs which are naïve about this don't scale properly and are teeny-tiny.

I personally love this! I think the concept is especially fitting for mobile use. It would be nice to be able to swipe left/right to advance between project pages and projects themselves. Good work!

I scanned through almost all of the posts on the feedback wiki, and this was the only one I saw which addresses handling recoverable errors. Recoverable errors are definitely a thing, but the original error handling proposal forces the hand

Wow, when did MDN start scrolljacking? I use a browser extension [1] which provides vim-like bindings for Chrome, and sites that scrolljack severely mess up the scroll up/down functionality. It's hard to tell there's scrollja
